PyCon 2010 in Cleveland - Update

Today was the kickoff meeting. The first thing that struck me is that we were the only bidders in the room. There were people from the other bidding cities, but I don’t think any of them were actually a part of the bidding process. So that was good. We had a strong showing with about six of us in attendance.

The PyCon location selection process is really focused on evaluating the local community. This is good for us! We have a very strong Python community. I believe that Cleveland has other strong communities that may align with us. I’m going to be sending out an email to the NOOSS and Ruby groups to see if we can get their support. Anyone know of other local groups that may be interested?

    Thats a great idea. Thanks for the tip!
  • Might want to also drop a note to the Ohio Linuxfest organizers at http://www.ohiolinux.org. Might be a good idea for the Python community to get a .Org booth at the show and get some advance word out to people. Great opportunity to get in front of 1,000+ open source people.. just the type of people you want to know about Pycon.
